  • Al Smith Was First and Foremost a Ballplayer Whose Major-League Career Spanned 12 Seasons with Four American League Teams
    Smith was quiet man who made his noise on field By Gary Livacari Al Smith was first and foremost a ballplayer whose major-league career spanned 12 seasons with four American League teams. Primarily an outfielder, he played six positions as a major leaguer and was a fine defender with a strong arm and good speed. Smith finished with a .272 life-time batting average, hit 164 home runs, and reached base nearly 36 percent of the time. He also made two A.L. All- Star teams and played for two pennant winners (both managed by Al Lopez). He hit a career-best .315 in 1960 and posted his biggest power numbers—28 homers and 93 RBIs—in 1961. But despite his considerable on-field accomplishments, he will always be best remembered as the unwitting subject in one of baseball‘s most lasting images: the “beer bath” photo from Game Two of the 1959 World Series. When Smith died in 2002, his obituary in the New York Times was headlined, “Al Smith, 73, Dies; Was Doused in Series.” Alphonse Eugene Smith was born on February 7, 1928, in Kirkwood, Missouri, a St. Louis suburb. He grew up a fan of both local big-league teams, the Cardinals and the Browns, and his hero was Cardinals outfielder Joe Medwick. Nicknamed “Fuzzy,” Smith was a versatile, multitalented athlete at Douglas High in Webster Groves, Missouri. The MVP of the baseball team, he also starred in football, basketball, and track, and was a Golden Gloves boxing champion in the 160-pound division. Smith scored 33 touchdowns in one football season and was reputed to have scored 10 touchdowns in one game.

SAVE THIS | EMAIL THIS | Close At Sal Maglie Stadium, future ball stars get a chance Niagara Powergets nod from3 fans of gameTicket information By Miguel Rodriguez NIAGARA CORRESPONDENT Updated: 07/01/07 7:47 AM NIAGARA FALLS — Jim Cheetham, Len Kramer and Joe Chadima have attended at least one game for almost every baseball team that has called Sal Maglie Stadium home since the ball park opened in 1939. The lifelong Niagara Falls residents have seen a who’s who of future major leaguers pay their dues during their developmental processes while attending the games of the Buffalo Bisons, Niagara Falls Pirates, Niagara Falls White Sox, Niagara Falls Rapids and short-lived Niagara Falls Mallards at the neighborhood “barber shop” on Hyde Park Boulevard. So the former ball players — about 40 years removed from their LaSalle High School playing days — had to satisfy their curiosity and see what the Cataract City’s newest baseball tenant, the Niagara Power, was all about. After attending their first New York Collegiate Baseball League game June 21, the veteran trio liked what they saw, and compared the product to what they’ve seen from previous minor- league teams in the Falls. “It’s got a professional atmosphere,” said Cheetham. “I’m surprised at the quality of pitching and how fast these guys are throwing. “The people that work here have things [prize giveaways] in between innings for the people. We go see the Bisons play, and it’s the same [game-day] atmosphere except the Bisons play at a higher level.
